About Rattle n Hum Cairns

Rattle n Hum Cairns is a bar and grill on the Esplanade, across from the palms and the lagoon. It serves wood-fired pizza, burgers, steaks and seafood off the grill, with live bands on Friday and Saturday nights and sport on the big screens. The main function space is the Great Northern Beer Garden at the back of the venue. It has greenery, festoon lighting, a retractable all-weather roof, booths and long tables, a 150-inch projector screen, and a stage with audio gear, holding about 100 seated or 150 standing. Groups of 80 or more can book the beer garden exclusively, with its own bar and bartender plus AV and music. Inside it, the Garden Patio is a semi-private corner for up to 50 with five fixed tables and three high-top tables. Smaller groups have several choices inside. The Sports Bar has long tables for 12, high tables and lounges and suits about 20, the Old Bar has a communal table for 18 to 21, and The Foyer seats up to 18 with a view of the palms and lagoon. Food is ordered as sharing platters and pizza slabs, each platter feeding around 12 to 15 people, with gluten-friendly and vegan choices on request. Food and drink packages can also be tailored to the group, and the functions team can help with decorating ideas and suppliers.
